One more demonstration that strange and sick things are going on in American police “academies”. They need to be monitored by civilians with no connections to law enforcement.

[Truth29]

Sounds like another case of don’t call the police unless you are prepared for extreme consequences.

[DannyTN]

They didn’t taser him. They didn’t even say “We don’t have time for this” and shoot him. They didn’t even shoot the dog.

She was lucky. Don’t call the cops in such a situation. That was a big mistake. Call the medical first responders, if necessary.

Considering all the Marxists who live in that area and all the fundraisers they held for the Marxist Kenyan - once a week last election - I say amp up those beatings and don’t stop. NYC Professor - Do we even have to guess he wears a Che’ shirt?

[CaptainK]

I don’t know if it’s true for NYC, but I can call an ambulance without getting the cops involved. I would have done that in this case.

LaFont said she found Giambra attempting to subdue her much smaller husband by pressing his chest against a hallway wall. She said that despite her trying to tell the officer that Peltomaa had just had open-heart surgery, he threw her husband face down onto the floor.

Jeeze -- Was the cop trying to kill him?

[IbJensen]

Too many cops without much to do. They like to exercise once in a while and pretend the innocent victim is a perpetrator.

Here in the south we have so many small towns that hire police far out of proportion to the population and where there is very little crime. When a call finally comes in they swarm to the scene and act like apes. You see three and four cars out on an interstate, where they don’t belong anyway, for a speeder stop.

Sheriff departments, police departments need to be eliminated and the policing duties turned over to the state police. Like everything else in America there’s too damned much duplication and empire building!

[HiTech RedNeck]

At some point I hope even these erstwhile stormtroopers will start to feel sheepish. There need to be more judges with a heart like this. Sometimes bare sterile law doesn’t do it... now here I am sounding like a liberal. But (and you are free to disagree, but this is what I note) liberals are often would-be Christians with no Christ and are trying to do it in the flesh.

[null and void]

Sadly enough, the citizens survived their interaction with the cop.

The cop didn’t even pick up the extra point for shooting the dog!...

[Excellence]

EMT training should be part of police academy. It doesn’t take that long, nor is it that difficult.

[stinkerpot65]

Cops are all about ego and display of power.

Much like a liberal.

[ElkGroveDan]

For 30 to 60 seconds .... , LaFont tried to pull on the arm and shoulder of Officer Anthony Giambra to stop him from restraining her ill husband

She's lucky he didn't shoot her dog.

[dennisw]

no hounds were abused or shot

[Brass Lamp]

This sort of thing would end if all training academies had to have certification which judges could pull.

Rule one: The police are not your friends.

Rule two: Call the police if you want someone killed.

The Size 44 Uniform, Size 4 Hat Syndrome beings displayed again! Neanderthals with guns in action! Just another disgraceful display of abject stupidity and the unwillingness to listen to anyone who understands the situation. Ready, Fire, Aim!
